Harry Styles meets Taylor Swift's mom

Taylor Swift's romance with One Direction star Harry Styles is heating up - the country singer has introduced the Brit to her mom.

The young couple sparked rumors of a blossoming romance last month (Nov12) after Swift was spotted holding hands with the boyband star backstage at The X Factor in Hollywood.

They have since gone public with their relationship, enjoying a trip to New York City's Central Park Zoo and hanging out at Z100's Jingle Ball concert before taking their love overseas to his native England, where she celebrated her 23rd birthday last week (13Dec12).

Reports suggest the Love Story hitmaker was introduced to Styles' mom during their visit to the U.K. and now Swift has followed suit by taking him back to Los Angeles to meet her homemaker mother Andrea on Wednesday (19Dec12).

Photographs show Swift holding her parent's arm outside her mansion, while Styles can be seen standing close by and showing off his growing collection of tattoos in a T-shirt.
